Penloper’s Perambulations

Greetings fellow lopers 🙂

It’s been waaaay too long since I’ve traversed an official path/hike/trail/way/walk.

This August I aim to rectify that.

I had flights in April/May set to fly me back to the UK to complete the SWCP, but the world isn’t really all that travel-friendly right now (re. covid-19 pandemic), so that will have to wait. Instead, I’ll be re-energising Penloper with blog posts of some domestic walks guided by John and Lyn Daly’s ‘Take a Walk in South-East Queensland’.

It’s an interesting and friendly book, full of information about the wildlife, history, and immediate environment of each walk, and I recommend it purely for that detail. It has decent maps of each walk, but the bigger-context map is woefully inadequate, making figuring out where the walks actually are a challenge. I think of it as charmingly impractical.
I don’t have a specific plan to do the thing in order, or section by section. I’m just going to take it as it comes – re-doing some of my favourite walks, and discovering new ones – one by one.

Ready?

Go!
